Description

Our fresh sashimi grade yellow fin tuna is known as ahi (ah-hee). It has a tender and mild flavor which is great for searing or eating raw. Yellow fin sashimi may also known as maguro, but traditionally maguro is blue fin tuna. Yellow fin tuna has a lower fat content than blue fin, which gives it a milder taste and makes it better for searing. Our wild tuna is primarily caught in boats by long line. We carry yellow fin tuna year round, but sometimes it will be unavailable due to weather and supply conditions.

Yellow fin tuna (Thunnus albacares) are found all over the world, usually in deeper waters offshore. They can get as long as six feet and as much as 300 pounds but the average weight is 60 to 100 pounds.

Our fresh and live seafood products are as fresh as you can get because we purchase directly from reputable fishermen in California and Baja California who take great pride in providing the highest quality seafood. The seafood is caught and immediately iced or brought to our live tanks until you order. We package it with care, keep it cold in insulated boxes and ship it overnight with FedEx so that it reaches your door fresher than the vast majority of most supermarkets and restaurants.

Tuna comes SKIN ON. We remove most of the bloodline, but some bloodline is still present.

I agree, better that most restaurants January 20, 2012
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Minneapolis, MN United States  
Some of the best tasting maguro i've ever had. Came a bit frozen but expected in the middle of winter. Nevertheless it was fantastic. Definitely recommended.

Always excellent. December 19, 2011
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Redding, CA United States  
First off I have been involved with the sport fishing industry for decades and have caught hundreds of tuna over the years on long-range boats out of San Diego as well as my own boat. I know how to take care of fish and what high quality tuna should be and I have to say that the products I have received from Catalina have always been A+. I was very suspicious about ordering over the internet, but no longer. I have ordered at least 5 times now in various quantities and never been disappointed.
As to some of the comments about "blood-line" this dark meat is found on all loin cuts and should be removed prior to eating, and the small amount of waste is simple the price you pay for premium tuna.
